Historically, this might apply to \u201cordinary\u201d German people who voted for Adolf Hitler and continued to support him when he subsequently destroyed Germany\u2019s democratic institutions. Worse still, he remained popular, reinforced by widespread fear, even after the Nazis began to murder disabled Germans, political opponents, and the long-standing Jewish population of Germany. Most ordinary Germans stood by and let the Nazis do their worst."}
